Tamara Gillan breaks down how women can secure financial stability and thrive in the 100-year life.
In this Longevity Forum session (November 2025), Tamara Gillan from The WealthiHer Network explores the critical intersection of female longevity and financial security. Women live on average 5 years longer than men, face higher risks of long-term care, and are currently experiencing a 35% pension gap—making financial planning for longevity more urgent than ever.
Key insights include:
The Great Wealth Transfer: By 2035, 60% of UK wealth will be in female hands.
The Advisor Disconnect: 70% of women change financial advisors within one year of a partner’s death, often feeling misunderstood.
The Cost of Living Longer: Residential care averages £50k/year.
The Investment Upside: Women outperform men in investing by 0.4%, and closing the investment gap could add £3.22 trillion to Assets Under Management.
Tamara also addresses gender pay and pension gaps, the barriers of jargon and trust, and what women truly want: education, empathy, and holistic financial advice. This session provides actionable insights for women planning not just to live longer, but to thrive financially throughout a 100-year life.
